Simultaneous Liver-Kidney Transplants Using Donation After Cardiac Death Donors Long Term Outcomes Not Inferior to Brain Dead Donors.
University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD
Background:The Simultaneous use of both Liver and Kidney from the same DCD donor has become controversial with some authors advocating that DCD organs should not…2017 American Transplant Congress
Warm Ischemic Time as an Additive Predictor of Graft Survival in KDPI/KDRI Era of Kidneys from Donors After Cardiac Death: A Single-Center Experience Over Three Decades.
It is important to predict the outcome of grafts prior to kidney transplantation and establish an appropriate allocation system, particularly to consider expanded criteria donors…2017 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Re-Transplantation (KRTx) from Donation After Cardiocirculatory Death (DCD)-Standard Criteria Donors (SCD).
Transplant, Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, Winston Salem, NC
Donation after cardiac death (DCD) donor kidneys increase the organ pool but use in kidney retransplantation (KRTx) has been questioned due to higher rates of…2017 American Transplant Congress
Prophylactic Therapy Against Multidrug-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Contamination of Preservation Solution in Renal Transplantation: A Single Center Experience.
Kidney Disease Center, the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China
Objectives: Rapidly increased multiple drug resistant (MDR) gram negative bacilli like Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) become the main pathogen in ICU nowdays. Our study is intended…2017 American Transplant Congress
Normothermic Regional Perfusion of Donors Following Circulatory Death Improves Outcomes in Liver Transplantation.
Introduction: Donation after Circulatory Death (DCD) provides 23% of UK livers for transplantation, but such transplants are associated with more primary graft function and early…2017 American Transplant Congress
The Performance of Four Tools for the Prediction of Potential for Organ Donation After Cardiac Death in Neurocritical Patients: A Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Study.
Background Successful donation after circulatory death (DCD) requires identification of patients dieing within limited time after withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment (WLST). We aimed to compare…2017 American Transplant Congress
A Humanized Anti-CD47 Monoclonal Antibody Therapy Alleviates Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury of Porcine Renal Allografts Donated After Cardiac Death.
PURPOSE: This study investigated whether the blockade of the CD47 signaling pathway, which is involved in vascular endothelial nitric oxide regulation, reduces ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI)…2017 American Transplant Congress
A Novel Technique to Increase Donor Utilization: Our Experience Using High-Dose Tissue Plasminogen Activator Flush in Donation-After-Cardiac-Death Donors for Liver Transplantation.
Surgery, Montefiore Medical Center, Bronx, NY
The utilization of donation-after-cardiac-death (DCD) livers remains generally low. Strategies to address the perceived liabilities associated with DCD organs could influence their utilization in a…2016 American Transplant Congress
Deceased Organ Donors with Zero Organs Transplanted: Why and How Can We Improve?
Organ recovery professionals and donor hospitals are under intense pressure to go to whatever lengths necessary to provide transplantable organs. However, such a mentality can…2016 American Transplant Congress
Hypothermic Machine Perfusion Ameliorates Vasospasm and Edema of Podocytes and Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells Through Upregulating Expression of Krüppel-Like Factors 2.
Protective mechanisms of hypothermic machine perfusion (MP) remain largely unknown. Vascular branches of the renal arteries of 6 kidneys in 320 donors were unexpectedly injured…
